Monitoring the evolution and benefits of responsible research and innovation (MoRRI)

Monitoring the Evolution and Benefits of Responsible Research and Innovation (MoRRI) was a project tasked with implementing a monitoring system for responsible research and innovation (RRI) across its five dimensions (gender equality, science literacy and science education, public engagement, ethics, open access/open data), and governance. In addition to identifying indicators for the evolution of RRI, it identified social, democratic, economic and scientific benefits of RRI, and also conducted preliminary work to lay out routes towards implementing impact indicators. This report provides details of the survey of EU funded and non-EU funded researchers carried out by the MoRRI project. It aimed to discern whether the practice of RRI has economic, scientific, societal and democratic benefits from a sample of EU-funded researchers and a control group of non-EU-funded researchers. The findings of this survey help deepen the evidence base of benefits and impacts of RRI.
